The central management style of recipes means that I can manage all of the recipes in one place, then simply select which of these recipes (one or many) that I want to include in blog posts. Then if I want to edit a recipe, I do it from the plugin and it will update the recipe in all of my blog posts.

The recipes inherit the style of whichever theme I am using, meaning that I can change themes as many times as I want, or manually change the style of a theme (e.g. the text size) and the recipes will automatically match this. It also allows me to over-ride the theme settings if I want, so I can have a unique style for my recipes.

Plus Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) features are embedded within the recipes, so they show up (with photographs and other recipe information) in Bing, Google, Yahoo and other search engines.

The free version has all of the features that most food bloggers will want, but the premium version of the plugin (which is very easy to upgrade to) has more features, such as a recipe index.
